martinfan5 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 New from SMH, 2017/18 Camry nose to use on the new NASCAR kits, I would say the Chevy would be best bet. http://stores.smhracing.com/2017-18-camry-nose-hood-conversion/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VERNON Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Just wanted to let everyone know Southern Motorsport Hobbies (smhracing.com) just got a resin nose & hood to convert the Harvick & Patrick 2016 Fusion to a Toyota Camry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim N Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Thanks for the info. Do you recall the price? I am not a fan of Toyota at all, but I may want to build Truex's championship car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkJ Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 The only trouble is the roof is a lot different and also the quarter panels and of course the taillight panel. The Chevy looks a lot closer than the ford to use as a donor for the Toyota. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

False, the roof is not different, its the same for every make, the only difference is the side window shape, that is the common part for the common template( the roof shape), the side/nose and TV panel are different between the makes, the trunk lid is the same for all three. I agree that the Chevy is, better the sides and rear tail are closer to that of the Camry than the Ford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan, I should have said the roof around the quarter glass is different or just that the quarter glasses are different. You are correct the roofs are all the same on these cars. I'm going to try to make an Arca Toyota from a Chevy. The arca Toyota is not as much trouble to convert as the nascar one is. The quarter panels on the 2017/2018 Nascar Toyotas are really weird.
